No "threats", just regular ol suppression of the first amendment. The students should strike until that terrible president steps down.

I dare the President to hold a confidence vote with the faculty. Most university professors don't appreciate authoritarian leadership.

“If we allowed encampments in this instance, it would be nearly impossible to stop encampments from other groups in the future without facing challenges of chilling speech or viewpoint discrimination.” —UT President Jay Hartzell

Yeah, Jay. That's kind of the point of the right to free speech, free assembly, and protest. That's why your goon squad dropped all charges against every protestor you arrested, because they didn't actually commit a crime and were in fact exercising their rights.

While we're at it, PROTEST ISNT SUPPOSED TO BE CONVENIENT. Yes it makes the decision making hard for the admins, that is the point

The law around protesting at school is pretty clear and has specific rules about access for students. You can't block access to the school but other venues must be provided.
